me too..have not noticed that at our Fl Publix! Looks fresh! As for rain..here in NY, we are having a deluge day! Hope Sailaway is dry! -
I though the hair dryer provided was powerful enough for my curly frizzy hair, but had a short cord and must hold the "on" button.. Nice that ASCENT had a outlet under bthrm console. did not have to use the main area desk!

ASCENT 1/28.. awesome but yes loud. one show was too much and I forgot the earplugs but we had a great time Overall!

Celebrity's actual deceit on Move Up - bid for upgrade
hcat replied to george_sf's topic in Celebrity Cruises
oh.. that must be the class X trains their staff with! -
I had the Basic Wifi and did a very long " Live from" ASCENT review, posting many photos, several at a time, from my Samsung cell phone gallery. I only sent a few e mails but they did include photos. Maybe ASCENT is more up to date..??? Also had no issues on BEYOND .

We had a week on ASCENT in AQ class (1/28) . X has stepped up in quality once again in all areas, at least on this ship.We did not feel "ripped off", and felt we received good value for what we paid! only negs were the crowded outdoor pool with loud music always, and sports/ games all over during daytime... golf putting in EDEN, curling in the Club, Pickle ball set up in Rooftop Garden area (plink plink). But we managed to find some spaces where we could read and do our daily puzzles.. Cafe Baccio was very mellow..good service. How lucky you were to have 7 weeks on ASCENT in AQ Class! We also enjoyed Specialty Dining but thought BLU was exceptional!

Cobb salad not looking impressive.. My usual fav is the Wedge..if the dressing is good so no Prime Rib order* -
loved the free food demos!
-
I do agree about having sports all over the place on ASCENT...golf putting in EDEN , Pickle Ball on the Roof top garden, curling in the Club...hard to find a mellow place!

We like it at select venues! It's classic & classy, or are u pulling our leg again,

We like E Class ...as seniors we miss out on some of the late night stuff but are happy as it is. A ship can appeal to more than one type of cruiser..teens, couples, singles etc. The key is a Modern Luxury experience, rather than pigeon- holing guests. Great food, service and entertainment are what we look for.. Example.. on ASCENT during one day, the younger cruisers seemed to enjoy the outdoor pool, loud music and beach party vibe. At the same time, a diff crowd was SRO around the Grand Plaza area enjoying a top notch show with a Bllly Joel tribute singer.. No one was unhappy!

we had a bad storm on Mercury yrs ago going back to port thru straits of fl(?) The ship listed so bad we both fell.out of bed....but the captain came on PA in hallway & said stay in rms and remain calm...right! Glad not in a bunk bed..Tuck your mom in real good and secure the cabin.. Next a.m., we learned of many broken dishes in mdr.. staff worked all nite to clean up. The storm caused slider doors on main deck to malfunction.. open..major floods on main decks. We sloshed thru breakfast and carefully wheeled our carry-ons off the ship.. Big delay for those joining! Just another cruise adventure! Stay safe! -

Panzanella (Italian: [pantsaˈnɛlla]) or panmolle (Italian: [pamˈmɔlle]) is a Tuscan and Umbrian chopped salad of soaked stale bread, onions and tomatoes that is popular in the summer. It often includes cucumbers, sometimes basil and is dressed with olive oil and vinegar. -

Hope it worked out. By now you should be at your pre cruise hotel... . We had a door issue in Bermuda once.. We were 'deplaned" after the door would not close & could not be fixed. But having already cleared customs, we had to sit in a small lounge area for a few hours...no food, while a new plane was flown over..Not our most pleasant trvl day! -

Sorry for the delay but soon you will be on your way to a hopefully great cruise! Hope all goes well! -
All due respect to previous posts I hope this does not turn into a "why pay grats, thread" .. There are enough of those threads that can be accessed for those who want that conversation . My prior post fell on deaf ears! Topic was Pay ahead or add daily...Not another debate on grats or remove grats.. So hope all have fun venting once again!
